Orange Hits 1 Million iPhone Sales in France

摘要

This just in: Apple has sold 1 million iPhones-en France. Although France was one of the first countriesrnoutside the United States to get Apple's handset, wireless provider Orange took 18 months to hit the same milestone that Apple achieved in the United States in just 74 days.rnOrange released the iPhone in France in November 2007, though sales were lackluster compared to those in the United States, with Orange selling only 70,000 units in 2007. However, the sales in France seems to be more or less keeping pace with those of other overseas markets: Apple's partner in the United Kingdom, O2, started selling the iPhone slightly earlier than Orange, and it hit 1 million units this past February. Still, it's cause for celebration in France.
